Volt

I'm playing even sloppier than usual. Guess that's what months of not playing any FG at all does to someone.

If you're throwing big ol heavies right in your opponent's face, you finna learn real soon why people go for lights at close-range. 🤣 Usually, most FGs will actually have people poke at the midrange with things closer to mediums because of their range/speed ratio. You'd know that if you had any idea of wtf you're talking about. SFV just had a truly terrible midrange game overall, so the risk/reward ratio was a mess. SF4 had different issues skewed toward lights, or so I hear. Frankly, I didn't bother with that game too much.

How many fighting games have you actually played in your life?

This post in a nutshell

*Looks at ArcSys* Nah, sorry to break your nostalgia glasses, them shits just looked wack from the jump. 🤣

I'm always down for some sets. This game is hella different from what I'm used to when it comes to SF, so I'll definitely need the practice.

SF brand is strong af. Don't get it twisted. Also, it was the first one to really have that online presence and support. A lot of its numbers gotta do with technology and culture shifts. And if we're keeping it a buck, no numbers ever dictate the quality of a game. Only when you get your hands on it you can tell whether or not a game is good or not. The best example of this is Pokémon. The whole franchise has been objectively dogshit in several parameters since Gen 5 and that's like, the most valuable franchise in the world.

I almost watched the last CPT Top 8 like In all seriousness tho, SFV was an almost bipolar experience to me. The good parts were really good, but the bad parts were really bad. It'll undoubtedly go down like 4. People won't want to have anything with it for years and then it'll become a boomer Discord fighter. 6 is looking better than ever, so V's fall will definitely not be pretty.

Wasn't that confirmed to be in already? Pretty sure I saw it in the showcase.

Her theme is literally called Not a Little Girl and everything we know about her story mentions her older and wiser role. It could be that Chun just doesn't like to feel old lol. I, for one, welcome this big "Ara, ara..." energy. 😈

What are your specs?

That's just good networking at play. If anything, that's a good look because it shows Rick is capitalizing on the chances he's getting.

I was cool with it until EX Sand Blast wiped out EX Fireball. Wtf was that? Did Luke always have a stronger EX projectile than usual or what?

I really don't like battle damage. Can't stand to see women bruised up. Good thing we can turn it off. It's nice they added it though.

Not the OC stories 😭 This shit really is about to turn into Street Fighter X Xenoverse and it's going to be great.

@EdmundMystery solved. Check wtf they left on by default; Also, extra input delay toggle is a wild thing to have. 🤣 Edit: Also, it kinda feels like it gotta compile shaders at the beginning like an emulated game. Weird.

Steam deck is running it on 60fps, I've seen it on Reddit iirc. It might just be some config issue where it's not set to fully use your graphics card.

I did it yesterday, it's pretty quick. It might get complicated if you linked your steam account to it tho.

Fuck @Darc_Requiemold hating ass, that would be fire. Pun intended.

No, I think it's the Capcom ID thing.

Since when you turned into Ja Morant? You weren't in the Ultra Plastic trenches breh, stop fronting. 🤣 Feels good. If I die with full meter, I can claim it was just part of my strategy.

That reminds me, I gotta do the Capcom ID thing. They straight up ask you "How good were you in SFV?" 🤣 I know people will be out there straight up *lying*. 💀

It's not possible to enforce it. That's the only reason why Capcom hasn't done it. And I'mma twist the knife a bit. Not only the crack is available to any PC player, I sure as hell ain't feeling bad for Japanese players complaining about other players having early access to a game. Every anime game at Evo was a free meal to them because they had the entire arcade betas and months with the arcade releases before getting more exclusive time with the console versions and then the games got to the West. Anyone who is serious about competing should've gotten it already, especially knowing that there's a literal million prize at stake on CPT.
